Medallion Round 2 for 2016/2017

Oct 2016

My original idea for this was to somehow express single light ray coming in and a spectrum coming out but I could not figure how to execute that.  I had just under a half of yard of these fabrics from a BQ5 quilt top mom had recently finished.  The fabric reminded me of how light reflects about a gem.  I got the corner stones from Sunny Steinkuhler's Blocks Borders, Quilts book.  I then drafted the sides so they fit the block. I really like the effect and it is all due to the fabric!
